press the REL button to store the displayed reading as a reference to which subsequent
measurements will be compared. Short press the REL button to exit the relative mode.
7.
The meter can display the frequency (Hz) or duty cycle (%) of the measured voltage.
Short press the Hz % button to step through frequency and duty cycle readings.
